Debadge

I just keep wondering if the thought of debading is to bring the tail back to an early EVO style? I want to yank the Evolution and SE badges off so that it blends in with every other compact out there. Why advertise? And without the large wing on the tail there really is no advertisement.

Great how to. Did mine last week. Took out the Mitsubishi, Lancer, & Evolution Badge. Looks cleaner and nicer. Took about 5 mins. Props to the OP.

Fishing line works good too. I tried floss and it kept breaking.
The dang floss kept breaking for me too. I used a zip tie and it was pretty effective. I looked for fishing line but didn't have any

it was a warm day and i just pulled them off. you need to be careful pulling too far out as the emblem will crack and jab into the paint. i got 1 tiny chip from the 'evolution' part

florist wire and safflower oil - worked fine. Still undecided on whether I'm going to leave the Evolution on there.
